Compiling the android apk

[darwusch]

Hi,

After I compiled the subsonic-main, I would like to compile the android apk, subsonic-android.
The main I compiled with:

Code: Select all

mvn clean install

from the root directory of the source folders.
But this is not possible for the android app because there is no pom.xml in that directory.
There is a build.xml file, I guess this should be used, but can anybodey tell me how? With which command?

[darwusch]

So many smart people here, I'm sure some of you know the commands to compile the apk.
Anybody?

The android app is compiled with ant. Install ant + Android SDK and do "ant help" for a list of goals.

Cheers,
Sindre

Thanks, I get some errors:

Code: Select all

C:\Subsonic>cd subsonic-android

C:\Subsonic\subsonic-android>ant
Buildfile: C:\Subsonic\subsonic-android\build.xml
Duplicated project name in import. Project subsonic defined first in C:\Subsonic\subsonic-android\build.xml and again in C:\Progra~2\Android\android-sdk\tools\ant\build.xml

BUILD FAILED
Target "help" does not exist in the project "subsonic".

Total time: 0 seconds


The duplicate name does not seem to be the problem, but the target mentioned in the xml file doesn't seem to exist.
Is this missing?

[darwusch]

Some extra information.
In the build.xml file (in the root of the subsonic-android directory) the following line seems to cause this error:

Code: Select all

<project name="subsonic" default="help">

So I guess it looks for a target named "help", which does not exist. Is this missing or should I change this target?

[darwusch]

Ok, after a lot of trying I managed to get a bit further. Now it compiles to an apk file.
Only the last part where the apk should get signed, it fails.

How can I fix this?

[darwusch]

Ok, I found a work around.
With apk manager I could sign the apk.
Now I run my self-compiled apk on my android phone, very nice.
Thanks for the help.

Does anyone know the proper way to work around this? I'm attempting to compile the android APK on linux. I can build it fine with `ant debug` and from Eclipse, but when trying to do `ant release`, no passwords that I provide for the keystores work. Does anyone know the appropriate keystore passwords to allow proper release building of this?

For reference, the output of `ant release`:
